Excelente
Me encanta la calidad de sonido superior en comparación con otros servicios y sus características de configuración
You put ADDS for free users
The iPhone users are used to have apps with out adds 😡😡😡 Now I understand that you don't know how to earn more money from the people!
Excelente
Los efectos y la simpleza la hacen perfecta.
Winner
My go-to podcast app. After recent rewrite, there were a few bugs but I fell in love all over again!
Latest version jumps to next episode randomly
I’ve noticed lately that when I pause an episode and then come back to it later. It will often start the next podcast in my feed. Rather than finish an episode that is half over, it jumps to the next one. Sometimes this happens when hitting play on the Home Screen app widget and sometimes when switching Bluetooth devices such as from my AirPods to my truck.
Fell from 5 to 2 stars
Update: now it’s skipping randomly to the end of podcasts and deleting. Even when marked to manual deletion. It’s shocking what’s happened to this app. I’ll struggle with it for a bit. See if it gets worked out. The iPad version is completely unusable.
CarPlay often breaks
Off the buttons, don’t do anything when trying to use CarPlay. Seeing as how I use this 99% of the time through CarPlay, this is not great.
Okay…
I listen to too many podcasts to try to find an alternative, but it has become increasingly buggy since the big update. It’s frustrating, because this has been a very good app. I find it most problematic when it comes to the queue. While I’m grateful that the ability to stream without downloading, I’ve noticed sometimes episodes don’t play or vanish from the list and it’s constantly losing the back button so I have to reboot the app. Not great!
It's good
Maybe the best podcast player
